Web Version about itsagramlive

[harrypython]

What about a desktop service? yellowduck.tv use a desktop app.

We obviously will reach that point, but we need to create a web app first and then we can convert it to desktop apps using Electron.

I didn't understand the need for the web app 😕 .
Is it necessary for Electron?
I have no experience in desktop apps.

[RaihanStark]

Okay, I will fork this repository and I will build the web apps from it😊

[harrypython]

I'll follow your project and please let me know if I can help with something, I'll love to 😃

Hi, Harrypython.

I have created a web version of it, you can check it out (https://github.com/RaihanStark/instaliveweb) (dev release). But, I have some major problems from the API.

Case

I'm trying to store the object session after the user logged in, so I can send more requests without needing to log in again every time I send a request, to avoid the rate-limiting.

The Problem

After I deserialize the object and try to send any request, the servers response error 403 with the message "You've been logged out".

Object Serialize with pickle

from ItsAGramLive import ItsAGramLive

Live = ItsAGramLive(username='foo',password='bar')
Live.login() 

f = open("pickle_data", "wb")
pickle.dump(Live, f)
f.close()

Object Deserialize

import pickle
from ItsAGramLive import ItsAGramLive

# get the object with pickle
f = open("pickle_data", "rb")
Live = pickle.load(f) # <ItsAGramLive.ItsAGramLive.ItsAGramLive object at 0x0339FD00>

Live.create_broadcast() # * ERROR(403): login_required

Solutions?

It would be great if we get and store the auth cookies and load cookies as needed and maybe adding a new function like load_session() and save_session() or something similar.

I have a pull request #20 to solving the problems I addressed.

p.s: I have a lot of ideas to be included in this project, I want to create documentation, testing, and more. Are you still maintaining this project?

[RaihanStark]

I assume this project is not maintained and I don't want to disturb the stability of this project, and I make a new one, please check it out: https://github.com/RaihanStark/instalivecli
